On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.

A workshop to test your ideas on climate change, investigate solutions, have fun and eat pizza!
Join us at Jesus College for an interactive workshop to test your ideas on climate change, investigate solutions, have fun and eat pizza!
We will be using En-ROADS, a global climate simulator that enables users to explore the impact that dozens of policies – such as electrifying transport, pricing carbon and improving agricultural practices – have on factors like temperature, air quality and seal level rise. As we’ve seen in COP28, there are numerous areas where action can lead to impact. We’ll use the En-ROADS simulator to help people make connections between the possibilities available to help ensure a resilient future, and give you an insight in to how international negotiations work.
The workshop will be led by Jesus alumnus Dr David Preece (2001, Geography), Head of Geography at TeachFirst, with an introduction by Professor Tim Coulson, Environmental Sustainability Fellow at Jesus College. Tickets are FREE and include pizza and drinks.
Doors open at 5.15PM.
